How Can This B0P-Ihe Baltimore EOentng
NetOs Of Tuesday says:
"a marriage license was refused John W. Shars-
wood and Emma McClelland Wells at Ellicott
city, Howard county, few days ago, because the
ceremony was to be performed in Baltimore coun-
ty. The groom lived at Gainesville and the bride
at Ilch@ter."
There is certainly something wrong about this.
We have always been under the impression that a
marriage license obtained, for instance, in Balti-
more comfy, was good for any other county in the
State. 1t is State license, and why not as good
in one Ounty as in another, when issued in proper
form and bearing the seal? If the Howard county
Clerk declined to issue the license because one Of
the parties lives in Baltimore county, he takes an
altogether different view of the law from the gen
eral construction of it. We learn that the Clerk
of the baltimore county Court lately refused to
issue license because the prospective groom re-
sided in Pennsylvania, while his intended bride
was a reident of this county. This is not SIM
liar case to the one referred to above, the man
being a on resident but even in this instance we
think tn license should have been issued to him,
in view f the fact that one of the parties to the
instrumat was resident of Maryland. We would
be glad have some enlightment on this subject

Wedding and Reception.--Mr. Joseph f.
Selling, q well known citizen of Stemmer's Run,
18th district, was married the 14th of February,
to Miss Louise Kimmel. After the ceremony q
reception was held at the groom's residence,
which was attended by large number of friends
from the city and county. An orchestra from
Baltimore furnished splendid music and the dane
ing, which was of the chief features, was kept
up until late hour. An elegant supper was
served, which was greatly enjoyed by the com
pany, and altogether the affair was one that will
long be remembered by the participants. The
happy couple were the recipients of many hand
some presents, among them beautiful pair of
vases, accompanied by some pretty verses COM
posed by the friend who presented them.

Tie Grandest Product of the Farm

The lancaster (Pa.) Eeaminer says: "The grand
est product of the farm is not large crops of wheat
corn or other grain nor is it the herds of stock,
nor the pounds of butter it is the boys and girls.
In every avenue of life where thrift, capacity and
energy are required, the man who pushes to the
front il the son of the farmer. He has the intell
gence and there is large element of broad, COM
mon sense in his nature he has constitution
that can endure labor and the trials of ife 1t is
a notatle fact that in colleges the best students
are the bows from the farms. In the workshops,
in the lals of legislation at the BAR the forum,
in the rulpit ninety nine -hundredths Of the
men who stand upon the summit were once boys
on the arm. In youth they, perhaps, went bare
footed, wore patched clothes and worked their way
up to a, education, but they got there! While the
city boys are fooling with the most frivolous
things in life the country boy is working, strug-
Cling towards the practical, useful ends of lie,
and often brings up on the summit of fame, in the
halls the Legislature of Congress, in the pull
nit, at the bar, or in the merchants counting room.
The stamina with which he is endowed by inner.
itance is husbanded and developed in and by his
surroundings in early life, and his early manhood
is of the stoutest and the most enduring. Indeed,
the most successful men found in any and every
walk of life were born and reared on the farm or
under similar conditions, and though they adorn
every walk of life and prove the most successful
of men, the pity is that they do not stick to the
farm and we confidently believe, and our belief
is based upon long life of contact with such men,
that the majority of them at the end OF life regret
they ever departed from it."

The Georgia Floods

AUGUST, Ca, July 3O.-The river
commenced rising yesterday morning.
At this hour g o'clock it registers
thirty-three feet seven inches, being
the highest since 1865. The cot
ton and corn crops in the Savannah
Valley have been submerged and
destroyed. Hamburg is entirely under
water; the upper and lower portions of
Augusta are submerged. The river is
slowly rising and apprehensions are
ieit that the freshet may result in
serious damage to the city. Floods
have done great injury to rail-
roads, especially in Georgia. The dam
age to cotton cannot be estimated. No
such destructive fresheE has oc-
cured there in twenty years. Tele-
grams to the Chronicle, from upper
Savannah Valley, report all the bottom
lands Hooded, and the damage cannot
oe estimated. Continuous rains have
fallen IN the up country. No loss of
lie IS reported.
